Dan Mills: Mappings

Howard Yezerski Gallery
Boston

January 8 - February 6, 2021

Dan Mills makes paintings and works on paper that visualize observations about historic and current events. He uses the conceptual space of maps, combined with paint, collage, drawing, and printmaking to explore data in highly abstracted representations that vary in size from the diminutive dimensions of an atlas page to paintings over twelve feet wide. His process begins with a question, idea, or perhaps a response to a map, followed by looking for answers, learning about the topic, and investigating ways to represent it visually. Dan Mills: Mappings focuses on a selection of large paintings andd small works on paper.
